“Suprematistic Construction,” an abstract artwork by Kazimir Malevich, created in 1915, exemplifies the Suprematism movement. The artwork, executed in oil and wood, measures 72 by 52 cm and represents a prominent example of Malevich’s innovative approach to abstract art.
The artwork features a dynamic composition of geometric shapes, particularly elongated rectangles and squares, arranged in a seemingly chaotic yet harmonious manner. The shapes are rendered in bold, vibrant colors, including shades of blue, yellow, red, green, pink, and black. These colorful shapes intersect and overlap against a predominantly white background, evoking a sense of movement and energy. The arrangement of the geometric forms creates an intricate balance and tension within the composition, characteristic of Malevich’s exploration of pure artistic feeling rather than depicting the visible world. The artwork’s minimalist aesthetic, combined with its vibrant colors and geometric abstraction, embodies the essence of Suprematism, highlighting the innovative and avant-garde nature of Malevich’s artistic vision.
